Evaluation Opportunities in Mechanized Theories

4 pages•Published: May 15, 2012

Abstract

This invited talk will look at logic solvers through the application lens of constructing and processing a theory library of mechanized mathematics. In fact, constructing and processing theories are two distinct applications, and each will be considered in turn. Construction is carried out by formalizing a mathematical theory using an interactive theorem prover, and logic solvers can remove much of the drudgery by automating common reasoning tasks. At the theory library level, logic solvers can provide assistance with theory engineering tasks such as compressing theories, managing dependencies, and constructing new theories from reusable theory components.
